Open Letter to America from Dr. Heather Harder

UFOs and Extra Terrestrial Life

"UFOs exist and have always existed. You must only
view the Nazca Lines in Peru as proof. No amount of Government denial will
change my beliefs." -- Dr. Heather Anne Harder

Dear Fellow American,

As the Federal Government continues to deny the existence
of other worldly life forms, the American people only lose trust in the
Federal government. The truth is, the knowledge that we are not alone is
buried deep within our cellular memory. We already know the truth. This
alone accounts for the deep fascination with all things which deal with
this topic.

I believe we are not alone. The family of God is much
larger than most of us, including Steven Spielberg, can even imagine. Daily
hundreds, and perhaps thousands, of contacts are being made which prepare
us to meet our cosmic neighbors. How many more need to occur before we
acknowledge them as real?

Some of these contacts and ETís are friendly and
others are not. As in all things, discernment is critical. These visitors
from space are helping us prepare for a new day on Earth. Instead of trying
to deny their existence. We must begin now to prepare for open and direct
contact with many extra terrestrial beings. We need to learn how to discern
which ETís acts unselfishly for greatest good and which only serve
themselves.

Americans can best prepare themselves for this contact
by learning to respect diversity. If we canít get along with our
fellow humans because their skin is a different color, they worship differently,
speak a different language, or believe a different ideology, how can we
hope to exist in a world filled with beings that look like giant praying
mantises? Now, more than ever, we must begin to look inside a personís
heart to determine whether this is a friend or foe. We must learn to trust
our own findings and not some governmental report.

According to one poll, more people believed in the existence
of ETs than believed they would ever see a social security check. But,
be careful what you wish for---most ETs that have time for joy rides are
not the ones with which you want to play. The ETs that work on behalf of
this planet are busy trying to save humanity from destroying itself. To
hasten this open contact with these heavenly helpers, learn to stand in
your own power and respect yourself. They do not want to induce fear, or
to be worshipped as gods!

Meanwhile if you have a close encounter of any kind,
stay in your power. They are guests on this planet and only you have the
true power to determine your destiny. If the contact feels unpleasant,
send them away. Your thoughts can do the job. Demand they leave you alone.
Moving into fear only gives them power over you. Call on God, Jesus or
other Divinity to help you, these names have power in all worlds. _____

Washington is not a self-cleaning oven. We, the people,
must roll up our sleeves and go to work. If we, the people, continue to
do nothing, government will continue its steady erosion of our freedom
in the name of security and protection. If our Constitution and freedoms
are to be preserved we must take action.

I seek the office of President of this great nation and
I intend to get elected the old fashioned way, by earning the respect of
the voters through a true grassroots campaign. Only when Americans assume
the command of our government can we truly change the direction of this
great nation. I cannot do it alone. No longer can we, the people, stand
by and watch this steady usurpation of our Constitutional freedoms and
liberty.

I am a 49-year-old woman who is fed up with what I see
happening in this country. As a mother, businesswoman, educator and author,
I am willing to dedicate my life, and perhaps my sanity, to make it better.
As a former university professor, I pride myself on my ability to deal
with people on many levels. As a small business owner I have learned to
work hard and make every dollar count. In most respects,

I am very ordinary, except I have extraordinary courage.
I am willing to take on a system that has become cumbersome and inefficient.
Fraught with dysfunction and corruption, our government is long overdue
for a real overhaul, and I am just the woman to lead the way. As a citizen,
I don't just complain, I take action. I am willing to risk my comfortable
lifestyle for public scrutiny. I do not intend to run a traditional political
campaign, rather, I will run a leadership campaign, for it is leadership
that this country desperately needs. It is time to bring the "people"
back into this government by, for, and of us!

I do not claim to have all the answers that will solve
this nation's ills, but I am able to draw upon my ability to seek, heed,
and assimilate counsel from the wisest and most qualified. I intend to
attract those who will put this country's interests first. My sincere desire
is to simplify and reduce the existing federal bureaucracy to something
the average American can understand and hold accountable.

As President of the United States, I intend to join with
the American people to:

1. Restore the Constitution as the supreme law of this
land. This will give the power and responsibility back to the people. For
corruption to exist, many people are required to look the other way. We
must stop this practice and give real power back to state, local, and individuals
requiring the federal government to stay within the limits of authority
given it by the Constitution.

2. Reduce, simplify and bring integrity to government.
This will be done by requiring all Federal legislation to be written in
standard English (like our Constitution) and not legalese; coupled with
one law/one bill, this would eliminate much of the pork barreling and eliminate
various loopholes buried in documents up to 1,400 pages. We, the people,
will know what laws are being enacted, who they serve and exactly who voted
for them. There is something terribly wrong with the system when I have
earned a Ph.D. and yet am unable to read and comprehend our Federal legislation.

3. Institute a National Referendum which will give Americans
a genuine political voice. We the people will have the ability to speak
directly to key issues, (such as eliminating the income taxæ replacing
it with a national sales tax on non-essential itemsæand strengthening
a fair and just import/export tax base) and laws too sensitive for our
lawmakers to decide (like voting for their own raises and benefit packages).
Cumbersome laws which restrict entrepreneurial efforts can be eliminated
and/or reduced to encourage the proliferation of small businesses. The
restoration of the American dream can occur with the availability of direct
loans (paid back with fair interest) to all American citizens for a college
education and/or a one time small business start-up loan. These and other
changes made possible through a national referendum can ensure that every
American has the opportunity to realize their dream and that their voices
will be heard.

If these ideas interest you, then get involved with the
political system and do something now to make a difference. Support me
and/or run for office yourself. We, the people, can no longer turn a blind
eye to what isn't working. It is time to stand up and say, "ENOUGH!"

My '96 campaign efforts taught me much. Americans are
ready for real change. In Texas we were able to pull nearly 30,000 votes
with no advertising and very little media coverage. A handful of people
took it upon themselves to help make a difference. I also learned just
how far the current political system will go to keep out possible change
makers. In Arizona, the state Democratic party took me, and others, to
court to take us off the ballot. Arizona Democrats were allowed to vote
for Bill Clinton or "No Preference." In Kansas, the primary election
was simply canceled altogether! I will continue my campaign efforts undaunted.
Let us stand together in the year 2000 to truly restore the spirit of this
nation.

Thomas Jefferson was the founder of the Democratic party
and as such it was his vision which gave it life. Because of that vision,
I seek the Democratic nomination for the office of President. It is that
same vision this country now needs. We owe it to Jefferson and to those
who struggled to birth this nation, to do our share. Join me as we speak
on behalf of the Jeffersonian Democrats with such a loud voice that we
can't be ignored. We were never meant to be slaves to our own government.
Help by sending copies of this letter to your friends and family. Every
time you mention my name, I move closer to the White House. People cannot
vote for me, if they don't know I exist. Call and order your buttons, bumper
stickers and sign now! Help make our presence known. Your country and I
need your help. Join with me to restore the American Spirit. Phone, fax
or write our office today to join our network of volunteers. _____
